Last year, Fender announced it would be releasing a new guitar to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Monster Hunter, taking inspiration from the series’ ferocious Rathalos fire dragon.

“The majestic presence of the Rathalos has been meticulously incorporated throughout the instrument with its icon on the body back and 12th fret inlay, the distinctive feather and flame patterns as well as the guild mark on the body front,” reads the description of the guitar. “From the original body color to tortoiseshell pickguard and black hardwares inspired by the dominating ferociousness of the Rathalos makes this a one-of-a-kind guitar.”

The instrument went on sale in March for a RRP of £1699. However, Monster Hunter Wilds gamers can experience the new Fender guitar without breaking the bank.

Taking to social media, the official Monster Hunter Wilds account confirmed the instrument can be unlocked via a limited-edition event from next month. “Rock out on the Monster Hunter Rathalos Telecaster from Fender in the Forbidden Lands with a special collaboration gesture, available via an Event Quest that drops from Aug 27 to Sept 24!”

More details will be confirmed in the near future.

Monster Hunter Wilds was released earlier this year and remains one of the best-reviewed games of 2025, according to review aggregate site Metacritic. 

In a four-star review, NME wrote: “Monster Hunter Wilds capitalises on everything that made World the worthy hit that catapulted the series to worldwide success, with some welcome adjustments. It doesn’t have a story that’s worth writing home about but it’s a fun game filled with player expression and explosive gameplay moments that’ll make for exciting stories and memories later on.”

In other news, The Last Of Us Part 2 Remastered has received a controversial new update that changes the way players experience the game.
